Hi, everyone. Good afternoon. So welcome to the inaugural edition of Cloud Native Databases
DevRoom. So I'm here with my partners in crime. I don't know if there's a political
correctness to say. My name is Ray Pake. I'm a community manager for TIDB and I'll let everyone
introduce themselves.
I'm Laura Laruso, head of community at Pekona.
The T.S. Growls, part of the test team plans scale.
And one question I'm developing for all you have to write.
So yeah, when we first proposed as like a devroom, the purpose was to bring different
communities together that are developing database technologies for the cloud.
I mean, somebody just made a comment when I walked in here, like who isn't on the cloud
nowadays, but it's still a cool thing to say, right?
So that's the origin of the devroom and it was really exciting to work with people from
different communities. And then you may have missed it.
We have stickers from all communities here on that table over there.
So as you're exiting the room, feel free to pick them up.
That's what they're here for.
And just a couple of logistical stuff before we turn things over to Sunny,
our first presenter.
So here, I mean, in addition to us, there are people who will help with this CFP
like a selection process.
I think everyone's here except for Manan and Valerie from that mistaken.
So thank you, everyone for.
I mean, we unbelievably, we have 49 submissions for the talk.
On Manans here, sorry.
So we have 49 submissions and we only got half day.
So this was like a quite a challenge.
It was like heartbreaking to say no to some of the talks.
So if your talks got didn't get accepted apologies,
but hopefully we'll have more time next year when we're back.
Just one couple of things.
For, you'll notice that some of these committee members are also presenters.
They had to recuse themselves for grading their own submissions, obviously.
And not only that, we made it a rule that you can't even grade your colleague's submissions.
So for example, Daniel couldn't put a grade on Sunny's.
Proposal and vice versa.
So we try to make it as objective as we can.
So that's, yeah, I think that's the only thing I want to talk about in terms of CFP committee.
In terms of schedule, it's pretty straightforward.
But we have all the end user talks, group, towards the end.
So we made it sort of like a light in talk.
Peter will be here to sort of kick off this section.
And then for that portion with the end user,
there won't be any separate Q&A because it's a 10 minute presentation.
But if you have questions to any of those presenters,
feel free to stay up after 7 o'clock and they'll be happy to answer questions.
For other presentations, we have 30 minutes to allocate it.
But the presentations only for 25 minutes including Q&A.
We wanted to bake in five minutes so that we do a speaker changes.
And people can feet plug in their laptop.
We're having some struggles with that earlier.
Anything I miss, Lori?
I guess.
No, so you guys can see there's more people trying to get in.
So Ray asked earlier if you could just scoot in and make sure there's no empty seat next to you.
So we can get as many people in and there's like a fire code thing that they don't want anyone standing.
So that's the thing.
And then also up on the wall is the Faustum Code of Conduct.
So if you notice anything you can email conduct at Faustum.org or you can call that number or you can grab one of us and take us out on the hallway.
But we want to make sure this is a safe space and we're all following the Code of Conduct rule.
So there's a bunch of seats on this side of the house if you all want to walk over and scoot in.
Does anybody have a seat next to them?
Raise your hand so we can just make sure that we get everybody seated.
Again, it's like a fire code thing.
It's not a nothing.
Cool.
Maybe not.
Alright.
Cool.
Alright.
We'll turn things over to Sunny.
